¹⁶ A ^(A)leader who is a great oppressor lacks understanding,
But a person who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.

But one who ^(B)hurries to be rich will not go unpunished.

And does not know that poverty will come upon him.

²⁷ One who ^(A)gives to the poor will never lack anything,
But one who ^[a]shuts his eyes will have many curses.
